DIVA: FEMALE HUSTLER

chapter 12

My phone buzz again, how about you come over tonight. My roommate will be gone. I walk to the living room, I don't know. Let me get back to you about that later. I sit on the couch throwing my phone in the seat next to me. I turn the tv on a movie as my phone buzzes. I continue watching the movie not bothering with it.

At eight I go to the bathroom and take a quick shower. I get out drying off. I go to the sink looking at my cut.This s**t is fresh, I walk out going to the bedroom. I put my clothes on and cologne. I stand in front of the mirror, I'm a fine man. I move from side to side looking at my fit. I go to the dresser putting on my gold chain when my phone rings. I grab it off the charger," yo."

" You ready?"

" Yeah," I put my watch on.

" Then come get me. "

" Nigga you got a car."

" I know but we riding in yours."

" Whatever be ready in ten," I hang up. I grab my keys then leave my apartment. I hop in my car and turn on Rob Wave before pulling off. After ten minutes, I pull up in front of Travis apartment. I pull my phone out calling him.

" You here?"

" Yeah, hurry your ass up."

" I'm coming." I lean back in my seat while I wait. Let's hope big ma shows up, I lick my lips. I unlock the passenger door as Travis approaches the car.

" You ready to party," he gets in.

" Yeah," I drive the Bronx.

" Man this s**t is going to be so fuckimlng lit. Ashley is having an open bar and food.

You know there's gonna be a lot of bad bitches," I nod my head. We pull into the parking garage a few streets from the club. I grab my strap putting it in the back of my pants. We get out of the car walk out of the garage.

" You see that line." The line goes all the way down the street.

" Yeah, seems this is the place to be." We walk to the front of the line stopping at the bouncer.

" Wassup Kevin," Travis dap him.

" Just working." I look at the crowd," I see. Make sure you let some of these bad bitches in" I dap him. We laugh," I'll see what I can do," he let us through. The music is bumping playing Pop smoke. I scan the crowded club, not her yet.

" Let's go speak to the birthday girl." We walk to the balcony where the sections are of the club.

A bunch of females and some dudes. Travis walks up to a light skin girl," happy birthday Ash."

" Thank you," they hug.

" This my boy Kyrie," he moves out the way putting me in her view.

" Hey happy birthday."

" Thanks," she looks me up and down.

" I'll see you later," Travis tells her.

"Y'all can stay with us for a while," she grabs his arm pulling him to her.

" You cool with it?"

" Yeah."

" Drink whatever you want," she pulls Travis to the back. Birthday s*x. I grab a cup pouring some henny in it. I lean on the railing looking over the crowd taking a sip. I bob my head to the music playing until I see lil ma walk through the doors. s**t. I move away from the rails to the couch.

I sit down, hope she dont f**k this up for me. One of the other girls comes and sits down next to me.

" Hey," she smiles at me.

" Hey," I nod my head looking at her.

" I heard about you," she licks her lips.

" What did you hear," I raise my eyebrows.

" Ladies talk about things you do in the street and the sheets." I laugh while taking a sip of my drink.

" You know alot about me. What's your name?"

" Tammie, " she holds her hand out. We shake hands," well Tammie what can you tell me about yourself." She smiles," I'm from the Bronx, single and no kids."

" So, no man," I raise my eyebrows.

" No," she chuckles. I scan the vip section," if I would take you home there would be no problem."

" No," she leans forward.

" We'll see later on tonight," I get up off the couch. I lean on the rail looking back at her. She looks at me confused talking to someone else. I scan the club again just as big ma and her friend walk in. Damn she's fine. She wears a black long sleeved off the shoulder shirt with blue jeans and black boots. Her friend wears a red corset, black pants and red heels. They walk through the crowd with all eyes on them. They walk up the stairs to vip. They say hi to a few girls when Travis and Ashley reappear.

" There goes the birthday girl," the best friend hugs Ashley. I walk over as big ma tells Ashley happy birthday too.

" Thanks for coming. There's an open bar and food downstairs," Ashley tells them.

" Where you go," I stop next to Travis.

" I was in the back." I turn around facing the girls," hey Dominique. Did expect to see you so soon." She looks at me," hey." " I'm Erica," the best friend says.

" Kyrie nice meeting you."

" Good to see Kyrie. Have good night Ashley," Dominique says before she leaves. Ashley walks away talking to her friends.

" You met her before," Travis looks at me. I watch them walk to the other vip sections.

" Yeah our families are working together."

" How that happen? Two of the biggest families in New York working together."

" Just some common interest," I keep my eyes in them.

" What you gonna do?"

" I'm gonna let her get comfortable for a while then go talk to her." Travis nods his head," while you do that I'm go hang with the birthday girl."

" Round two I see," we laugh as he walks away. I scan the lower of the floor before walking down. I push my way through the crowd to the bathroom. My arm gets grabbed causing me to look back with my other hand reaching behind me. Lil ma stands behind me with a mean mug on her face," hey."

" I thought you were busy," she rolls her neck.

" I was. My boy just wanted to stop pass."

" Since you're here then you can hang with me," I look across the floor. Rel, one of the security guards, and I make eye contact. He nods his head," yeah let me go pee first." I nod my head," Okay I'll be by the bar." I walk to the bathroom as she walks to the bar.
